Cracker Barrel restaurants typically set out a free table game called Peg Triangle Solitaire.
For this assignment, you will implement a similar game that we shall call DigiPeg Solitaire. In DigiPeg Solitaire, the user can specify how many rows [1-9] and how many columns [1-9] the board should have.
In DigiPeg Solitaire, pegs can jump over an adjacent peg into an empty space. The jumping peg, the adjacent peg, and the empty space must be in a straight line as in Peg Triangle Solitaire. The potential direction for a peg to jump is over, under, left, or right.
When a jump is made the adjacent peg (the peg that was jumped over) is removed.
The game is over when no more moves are possible.
When 2 or fewer pegs remain when the game ends, the message You’re a DigiPeg Genius!
When 3 or 4 pegs remain, the message Not too shabby, rookie.
When 5 or 6 pegs remain, the message That’s nothing to write home about.
When 7 or more pegs remain, the message You’re a DigiPeg Igno-Ra-Moose.
